Lady Bruin head coach Tom Williams, whose coaching stops includes the Bishop Kelley powerhouse program, said following Tuesday’s win that in 22 years he had never seen the type of passing performance as he saw by the Lady Bruins in the last two games against Enid.

After falling 25-20 in the opening game, Bartlesville swept the next three sets, 26-24, 25-14, 25-17, to post their sixth-consecutive win.

Just 8-8 a week ago, Bartlesville now boasts a 14-8 mark as it heads toward the final week of the season.

Next up, the Lady Bruins will begin play Friday in the grueling Stillwater Invitational. Among their first-day foes will be the state’s No. 2-ranked Edmond North juggernaut.

Williams is hoping to see his team unleash the kind of execution it displayed at Enid.

Blair Koster led the hitting attack with a 2.59 (out of a possible 3.0) pass-receive state, followed by Megan Kibler at 2.49 and Shanaye Nordic at 2.31.

In the final two games, Bartlesville registered most its points the hard way.

Of the 50 total points in those two games, 35 were earned on kills, blocks or serves.
